On this episode of LTS we talk with Nornie Bro head chef and business owner of Mabu Mabu.\\xa0

Originally from Mer Island in the Torres Strait, Nornie has been a professional chef for over 20 years. Her style of cooking is all about generosity and flavour. She has been creating dishes using native ingredients for much of her career, and is currently on a mission to make Indigenous herbs, spices, vegetables and fruits part of everyone's kitchen pantry.\\xa0

Nornie is, to us, the absolute embodiment of true and pure hospitality.\\xa0

This was the very first chat we ever had with Nornie and we felt welcomed and included in her world immediately.\\xa0 We laughed alot and as we talked Nornie kept dropping hospitality truth bombs, wisdom and practical tips for a life of welcome, acceptance and inclusion as we went.

We loved this conversation and we cannot wait to hang out at Mabu Mabu when this lockdown is over!
